ends of chapters felt like there was a lot of maneuvering done to get them to fit the life and behaviour of the woman profiled.

The illustrations, though, are fabulous and I can't wait to see the finished book and see them all in full colour.

What would Catherine the Great do if she was bullied in her class's WhatsApp chat? - The answer can be found in this book.

might face.

It is not a self-help book, rather a book that is supposed to encourage children to stand up for themselves and gives them ideas how to overcome an ostacle.

The portraits are easy to understand and the pictures accompanying them are exqusite.

This review is based on a NetGalley ARC of the German edition, called "Power Women" provided by the publishers.
